Do Mask Mandates Work? Bay Area COVID Data from June Says No.

San Francisco and Santa Clara had higher case rates than Alameda County throughout the current surge, including pre-mask mandate. Once the mandate was introduced, the three counties all followed the same trend line, casting doubt on whether the mask mandate did anything to curb transmission at the community level.

Publix Refuses to Vaccinate Kids Under 5

 The DeSantis administration stood alone in the United States when it opted out of pre-ordering any COVID vaccine for Florida’s youngest residents. Publix, at least for now, will only give them to kids five and older.

Supreme Court’s Football Coach Ruling

 The Supreme Court ruled 6-3 on Monday in support of a high school football coach who knelt on the 50-yard line and prayed after games, paving the way for a new landscape concerning the role of religion in public schools.


 

The court’s conservative majority sided with Joseph Kennedy and against the Bremerton School District in Seattle, Wash., agreeing that the coach’s First Amendment rights were violated when the district placed him on leave for violating a policy prohibiting staff from encouraging students to engage in prayer.

Kennedy celebrated the win, telling Fox News’s “The Faulkner Focus” that he “can’t stop smiling.”

A SCOTUS Victory for School Choice

 "The U.S. Supreme Court ruled 6-3 that it is unconstitutional for Maine to provide public funds for private schools but not religious schools. It is an important victory for religious liberty and school choice. "

It is no secret that African Americans and Hispanics are the two minority groups that have been pushing the hardest for school choice. They want a way out from being confined — condemned would not be too strong a word — to the local public school. While the Maine decision may not have direct application to them, it will surely inspire school-choice activists and lawmakers to craft new school-choice initiatives that will.

The big losers are the teachers' unions, the ACLU, and Americans United for Separation of Church and State. Their efforts to deny equal opportunity to blacks and Latinos took a big step backwards.

You Should Consider Where Your Money Goes and for What Purpose

 

 


Starbucks said Monday it will pay the travel expenses for U.S. employees to access abortion and gender-confirmation procedures if those services aren’t available within 100 miles of a worker’s home.

Why would any company need to broadcast a Pro Abortion stance?

FBI Probed Parents Under Counterterrorism ‘Threat Tag’ For Protesting School Boards

 


The FBI used “threat tags” created by the bureau’s counter-terrorism division to launch dozens of investigations into parents who had protested at school board meetings, whistleblowers disclosed.

The probes targeted parents who were reported on a new Justice Department “snitch line.”

The FBI investigations included a father opposed to mask mandates and a mother deemed a threat for “owning guns” and belonging to a group called “Moms for Liberty.”

The whistleblowers work for the FBI.

“You’ve got over two dozen cases that whistleblowers came to us about, that they had concerns on,” Rep. Jim Jordan of Ohio, the ranking Republican on the House Judiciary Committee, told The Washington Times. “If that isn’t designed to chill speech, I don’t know what does.”

Mr. Jordan wrote a letter Wednesday to Attorney General Merrick Garland accusing the FBI of opening “at least dozens” of investigations into parents and others using the counter-terrorism threat tag “in almost every region of the country and relating to all types of educational settings.”

Mr. Jordan also accused Mr. Garland of lying to Congress.

Special Needs Student Rewarded $3 Million Settlement In sexually abuse case.

 


SEATTLE – A former Seattle Public Schools student was rewarded a $3 million settlement from the district stemming from a 2020 lawsuit.

The former unidentified student claimed she was sexually abused by former teacher Meghan Miller in 2016. The victim was 15 and a sophomore at Ballard High School, where Miller coached soccer and was an assistant with special needs students.

The lawsuit claimed Miller sexually abused her on a weekly basis until the victim came forward in 2018. The victim claimed Seattle Public Schools failed to protect her, despite knowing she posed a danger to children.

Attorneys claim they uncovered evidence proving SPS knew Miller was a danger. Miller was initially hired with the district in 2007 at Roosevelt High School.

Miller spent two years there and a supervisor said she displayed “a pattern of predatory behavior.” This and repeated boundary violations with students led to her firing in 2009.

However, she still ended up being hired in 2010 at Ballard High School as an assistant soccer coach. Her duties were expanded in 2015 to helping with the special education classroom.

Recap : From 2007 to 2009 Miller showed a pattern of sexual predatory behavior and was eventually fired. In 2010 SPS rehired the known sexual predator.    

Who else needs to lose a job over this?
